Guild Wars 2

Hello Anet .. anyone actually there??
Anyone… who understands the simple rules that constitute a COMFORTABLE human environment, established 3 over thousand years of real life Architectural trial and error … no?
Obviously not!

Guys really .. basics are for a reason.. they work!

Didn’t you notice us all happily gathered in the Mystic Forge plaza in the old LA?
Perhaps you missed the posing platform right by the bank and the way people parked their toons in the small space in between the bank and the BLT… ??? Didn’t you notice that no one parked up in the old Plaza … because no one was there to see, or be seen?

Frankly the ‘Designers’ need to please explain what a giant lobster this has to do with the back story in this game .. which idiot thought Seafood Salad would be an inspirational environment, and where the hart and center of this game is now supposed to hang out together?

You have a great community .. stop kicking them in the crotch and get someone who knows what there doing!

But….the giant lobster is amazing!

Is it a Rock lobster?

I didn’t know your opinion held such a high merit. They should for sure replace a staff member just because you don’t like it.

Well it certainly wasn’t a rock. Everybody had matching towels though.

Did you notice that there are other sea life themed animal buildings too, such as the Squid Bank and the Starfish Crafting Stations?

It’s like, a naval-based city. Lore-wise was taken over by pirates after the great flood. I would hardly say that a sea-life theme is a terrible design mistake!

it kept me going when i had troubles

Seems very Disney-fied, and totally unlike any theme or aspect of the old LA. The new structures are either skybox or look Minecraft-inspired up close. Sigh.

I am no expert but I feel like I am in some 5 years old kids playground or an aquatic park, I expected something more majestic castle like with some asuran advanced tech stuff.

Best thing about a Giant Lobster attack is getting to eat it after it’s dead.

Most of the surrounding area of Lion’s Arch is good, the problem is the theme park in the middle that seems to have been designed by Bloody Stupid Johnson of Diskworld fame.

It has the feel of a sea life park in early Februrary, when it is sleeting down, outside of somewhere like Birmingham, with a few people standing around looking lost.

That is very sad and a lost opportunity. The whole thing about feedback is to avoid pink elephants, or in this case giant lobsters, in LA. It really seems to be that the designers went all out to make something impressive but nobody asked if it was the right thing to do.

I am not a fan. :C Looks like they pulled the visitor map from Seaworld and said “done”. Very inefficient. What a waste of development time. :\
